Since a new update, every time I open up a new tab I get a menu of my most used pages. I hate this how do I get rid of it?

My firefox updated yesterday.
When I press ctrl+t for a new tab, I get a menu of the most visited site instead of a tab of my home page.
I can't stand this feature, how do I disable it?

hello, please refer to the following article in order to switch the new tab page off: [[New Tab Page – show, hide and customize top sites]]

  • Since the last update, every time I open "Numbers" I get a notice that a font is missing.  How can I stop seeing this warning?

    Since the last update for "numbers", everytime I open numbers I get a notice that a font is missing.  I don't care that it's missing and I would like to not see that message.  How can I get rid of it?

    A document you had open at the time you quit Numbers has a font that you do not have (probably Calibri).  You can change the font to one you have OR close the file before you quit Numbers.  Numbers will open files you had open when you quit.
    Looks like:
    The other thing you can do is check the box "Close windows when quitting an application" in "System Preferences > General"

  • Since the last update, every time we start Firefox, it quits responding. If we wait long enough it will fix itself. This is a big time waster for sure.

    When I start the program, it will hang. Bringing up Task Manager it shows that Firefox is not responding. Also if I click anywhere on the screen, the screen will lighten up and also show "not responding."
    I have tried closing the program and reloading but this does not help. The only thing I've been able to do is wait and wait and wait. Then suddenly it will start working again.
    What to do? I have had this problem a few times in the past but do not recall how it was fixed and I'm lost on what to do except to accept this or go back to using Explorer.

    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    This reads backwards, It is the other way as "Norton update is compatible with Firefox 9".

  • Two add-ons update every time I open Firefox; same versions, over and over.

    NoScript and Download Helper launch updates every time I open Firefox (latest ver). If I close browser, they launch again immediately.

    ''FredMcD [[#answer-716532|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    Try this, remove both. Restart Firefox. Any problem? Now install '''one'''
    add-on from its '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Mozilla Add-ons Web Page]'''.
    Restart. Any problem? Now do the other add-on.
    </blockquote>
    Thanks, Fred. Tried that and tried it again, restarting between attempts. No dice. Firefox still wants to download both every time. I can even apply my license to Download Helper. It runs while Firefox is open, but tries to reinstall DLH next time I open Firefox.

  • Why is iTunes 11.1 asking me to create a new library every time I open it?

    Every time I open iTunes 11.1 I have to load my library file manually...it does not just open automatically.  It asks if I want to create a new library or load a previous library each time I open the application.   I fixed permissions on my hard drive but it does not seem to help.  Also, Safari is acting strange...when I click on a link in a page it downloads the HTML file instead of opening the new link.  Lots of quirky stuff happening!  Had to restore my HD last night from Time Machine...still acting weird.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Skype "updates" every time I open it

    Hi.
    Every time I open Skype for the first time that day, it says there's an update and gives me the option to update when Skype is closed or skip that update. I usually choose the former, but the next time I open Skype it asks me again (unless it's on the same day). My current version is 6.19 (442). The version doesn't change when Skype "updates".
    What can I do to get rid of the notifications?
    Thanks in advance.

    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool. Go to Windows Start  and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post. Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

    Since upgrading to OS X Mavericks I have not been able to work on any MS Word tracked changes documents (works fine if no tracked changes or comments in the doc). Every time upon opening such a word file with tr.changes the word processor closes / crashes.
    What can be done in this case?

    I just discovered that by turning off in tracked changes balloons in Word preferences prevents the software from crashing, but from then on I need to use only the review pane.

  • Itunes is opening a brand new itunes every time i open my itunes.....

    hi guys..
    my itunes has just started doing this lately and i dont know why!
    when i open itunes its not opening my itunes, it opens a fresh one every time and launches the getting started tutorials too, all my settings have been reset and when i try sync my ipod it says its synced with a different itunes. I put all the settings back to the way i have them and re sync my ipod to this itunes, but soon as i exit itunes and run the program again it opens a new itunes again!
    iv tried reinstalling it and got the new update but still doing it.
    please, please, please someone help!
    many thanks
    kurt.

    Just want to share my fix for this...... Don't know that computer you are dealing with but if sony, here it is
    WOW! Thanks to all who directed me to Sony for this issue. I have downloaded the update http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2715 (which by the way would not run for the first few times stating it was an update for Vista even though I chose the Windows 7 OS and the page showed was for 7.) I have rebooted about 4 times so far and everything is still in iTunes. Oh thank you all.... BTW I had my computer in with the Sony Backstage guys for a tune up a few months ago and I explained this issue to them. They had no idea and recommended I go over to the Apple store in the Mall. I would think they should be versed on various software related issues which can create trouble for users of their products just as they are versed in the nuts and bolts of how to save this, and move that, and make backup disks, and read my email. : ) Keeping my fingers crossed.
    All this technology conflict.... Can't we all just get along???

  • Why do I have to allow a new window every time to open from within another window, Ie, from an email?

    When I try to go to a web site from another web site or from an email from a link, I am required to click on the "ALLOW" button every time. It seems like if I have already clicked on it that I have allowed it. It is very frustrating. If it can't be fixed, I will either go back to an older version of firefox or choose another browser

    hello, you can disable these warnings, when you go to ''firefox > preferences > advanced > general > warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page''.

  • Why does firefox transfer data every time I open up applications such as facebook games. it takes the games longer to load because of this.

    Connecting to my home page is quick...I transfered all my bookmarks (favorites) and settings as suggesetd from internet explorer. I figured this would only happen the first time I opened up games on facebook using Firefox...but it happens every time.

    I'm sorry you are having this trouble. I can assure you that we want you to be using the homepage of your choice, and w are not even partnered with google anymore, for this isn't something Mozilla is doing on purpose (we will always respect your user choice)
    I'd try the following:
    * Sometimes this can be caused by a corrupted Firefox profile. Try the steps at [[How to fix preferences that won't save]] and let me know if that works.
    * If that fails, try a Firefox Refresh, [[Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings]]
    * Finally this can be caused by malware. Try scanning for malware with the scanners at [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]

  • Every time I open, all my previous tabs come up. I can not stop this and the place to check doesn't allow it. How do I stop them, it is annoying.

    I start a session and all the previous tabs come up, like I want to restore, but I don't want to restore. I tried deleting history, etc--didn't work- they still came up-tried the setting in tools-options nothing changed

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • I am recording with Logic Pro X, using my Yamaha XS8 keyboard as a Midi controller. I also have a Thunderbolt Display. Every time I play and release a note on the keyboard, the Thunderbolt Display speaker emits a doink sound. How do I get it to stop?

    I am recording with Logic Pro X, using my Yamaha XS8 keyboard as a Midi controller. I also have a Thunderbolt Display. Every time I play and release a note on the keyboard, the Thunderbolt Display speaker emits a doink sound. What is causing it and how do I get it to stop? My sound is running through the Saffire Pro 40 Interface (Focusrite) into external speakers with powered amps.
    Also, When I record I am hearing little pops in the system. I have checked all of my meters and they are not clipping. What is causing it and how do I get it to stop?

    Pancenter,
    Thanks for the response, but I do not have a midi interface. I am using a midi to usb connector cable, thus bypassing the need for a Midi interface.
    The Mac reads the USB cable as a midi device, but not the keyboard that I am trying to use as a controller. I have tried it with my korg sp 300 and with my Nord Electro 2.
    Thoughts?
    Thanks,

    This is what you have, correct?
    http://www.alesis.com/usbmidicable
    This from Alesis..
    "The AudioLink Series USB cable receives and outputs MIDI signal thanks to its internal interface. The USB-MIDI Cable connects plug-and-play to your Mac or PC for an all-in-one USB-MIDI solution."
    Notice, -internal interface-. What you have is a simple USB MIDI Interface. Most MIDI interfaces are USB.
    My point is (was), MIDI OUT of the Korg goes to the connector marked MIDI IN on the Alesis, those new to MIDI often get this wrong.
